  • Patent number: 11682029
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for scoring an individual interaction session between a user and a software program are disclosed. A method includes recording, by a processing device, one or more actions undertaken by the user with the software program to obtain recorded session data, determining, by the processing device in real-time, one or more metrics that correspond to at least one of the one or more actions undertaken by the user with the software program, measuring, by the processing device, the one or more actions undertaken by the user based on the one or more metrics to obtain metric data, and providing, by the processing device, the recorded session data and the metric data as an input for one or more of a machine learning algorithm and a predictive analytic algorithm. The one or more of the machine learning algorithm and the predictive analytic algorithm scores the individual interaction session.

  • Patent number: 10997678
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for searching for drawings found in a set of patent-related documents includes receiving a search query, and searching a parts index for part names matching one or more terms in the search query. The method further includes displaying one or more drawings, wherein the one or more drawings include at least one part name within the search query and the part name is stored within the parts index. In another embodiment, a method for searching for drawings includes receiving a request to search for drawings relating to a select drawing of a patent-related document, extracting parts information from the select drawing, and comparing the extracted parts information with parts information stored in a parts index. The method further includes determining that one or more drawings are similar to the select drawing, and displaying the one or more drawings.

  • Patent number: 10891700
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method of searching for patent-related documents stored in a document corpus include receiving, by a computing device, a search query comprising a first term and a second term, wherein the search query indicates that the first term is an equivalent of the second term, searching the document corpus for patent-related documents wherein the first term is used interchangeably with the second term, and preparing for display a list of one or more patent-related documents. In yet another embodiment, a method of searching a parts thesaurus, includes receiving, by a computing device, a search query including a search term, and searching the parts thesaurus for term variants of the search term. The method further includes preparing for display term variants of the search term found in the parts thesaurus.

  • Patent number: 5771378
    Abstract: An associative text search and retrieval system uses one or more front end processors to interacting with a network having one or more user terminals connected thereto to allow a user to provide information to the system and receive information from the system. The system also includes storage for a plurality of text documents, and at least one processor, coupled to the front end processors and the document storage. The processor(s) search the text documents according to a search request provided by the user and provide to the front end processor a predetermined number of retrieved documents containing at least one term of the search request. The retrieved documents have higher ranks than documents not provided to the front end processor. The ranks are calculated using a formula that varies according to the square of the frequency in each of the text documents of each of the search terms.
